349 Charge! (1/2)

After a few circles in the sky, Jiang Fei had scouted the territory of the Iron-Blood Alliance guild.

Their quest was to destroy the guild storage unit, which was located deep inside the castle.

It was inevitable. Others did it since it was the safest way to secure the guild's materials. Even Jiang Fei had designed Empyreal Dragon's storage unit to be the same way. All those important, countless, priceless materials had to be secured somewhere with tight security.

The only thing that Jiang Fei felt lucky for was the fact that their progress of their castle building was not as far as Empyreal Dragon. Although Empyreal Dragon started off slower than Iron-Blood Alliance, the Aristocrats had sent their help, thus, allowing Jiang Fei to move faster and further in terms of territory construction. Iron-Blood Alliance was not done with their construction. If they had, Jiang Fei would be forced to send in Isabella in her dragon form to attack. There was no other way for him to attack.

When a guild territory had finished its basic construction, only players with the guild master permission were allowed in. However, since they had not finished their construction, Jiang Fei and the party would only need to avoid the Scout Tower's detection AoE as well as other players. In theory, they could maintain stealth throughout the mission.

Once Jiang Fei returned to regroup with the others, he informed everyone and drew a makeshift map on the ground. Billy Boy sighed in relief since he, too, had feared that the territory was completed.

”Let's get going now! Guild master, fly to the sky and provide insights. Hazy, take the lead and find a path for us. The rest of us, stay put until guild master and Hazy Memory give us the green light!” Billy Boy gave the command and everyone nodded in agreement. They would have to move fast since the one-hour timer was left with only thirty minutes. If they could not finish their mission within the one hour time frame, all of Twilight City would be alerted to their presence and it would take them only five minutes for nearby players to defend the storage unit; ten minutes for all members of the guild to reach their base, and thirty minutes for all Twilight City players to join the defensive right. Time was the luxury that Jiang Fei and the party did not have.

Puff!

With a puff of smoke, Hazy Memory turned invisible and moved quickly toward the enemy base. At that moment, Jiang Fei applauded Billy Boy's judgment to bring an Assassin to this mission.

Jiang Fei summoned the Skygliding Dragon and soared into the sky with Isabella behind his back. As such, Jiang Fei informed Hazy Memory about his general location while Hazy Memory would scout and find a suitable path for the rest of the party to infiltrate undetected.

Being stealthy in the game and in reality were two different things. In the real world, even if you were caught by a guard, a quick chase and kill would eliminate that person, thus removing your presence again. In the game however, once you kill a player, they would re-spawn immediately. Easily, they could open the guild chat channel and inform everyone about the attack. That was why, Billy Boy had sent in the stealthy Hazy Memory to find a path with no players for them to infiltrate. One wrong move and the mission would be compromised.

Destroying the storage unit would require four special bombs that were also given by the system. Each player could only hold one of them and those who had the bomb could not be invisible. That was one of the other reasons why Billy Boy had brought in an Assassin since the rest of the team could not be invisible.

If the quest was not limited with time, Billy Boy would not need to waste so much effort. Jiang Fei alone could finish the job, with Isabella attacking the territory with her Forbidden Spell. In the worst case scenario, a team of invisible Thief could sneak in and attack.

However, the risk was high, as well as the reward for completion. Billy Boy had chosen the safe way instead.
